Thank you for becoming a prestigious Patron of the Arts!

The St. Johns River Festival of the Arts recognizes the importance of the support of the community from art lovers. As an Art Patron you pre-commit to purchasing art during the event. This has a direct impact on the success of the art festival AND the success of the “Art-for-Kids” Scholarship program.

Choose your patron level below. The art bucks are the equivalent of cash and are given to the artists as payment throughout the festival weekend. At the end of the event the artist will redeem them as cash. We encourage you to choose the level of sponsorship that works for your fine art and fine craft collection!
